Creation of the Museum - June 2013

Strong local believers in the Palestinian cause, Eddie and Rita, had the idea to set up a museum after Palestinians won ‘upgraded status’ at the United Nations. Over the years, other enthusiastic volunteers have come along to offer their time for the cause.Eddie was one of the two million objectors against Britain joining the war against Iraq: “I was beside myself with grief – so helpless and angry but simmering away and inactive for far too long. I met up with other like-minded people, and then of course, beautiful Rita, the ultimate campaigner who luckily for me is also my partner.”

So what were the main reasons for the Palestine Museum?

Eddie: “To educate the ordinary people about the truth and the facts, past & present, of the Palestinian people.”Rita was the backbone of collecting, printing and laminating all of the photographic and factual material that forms the information centre. She was helped by volunteers to complete this mammoth task. Thankfully, there has been a growing band of supporters of Palestine, here in Bristol, who have gradually added to the content of the museum.”
